Jill Zarin, who was apparently on vacation when Bravo officially announced on Saturday that she won’t be returning, has issued her official statement on her departure -- which includes a tease for a new show.

“I’ve had four amazing years on The Real Housewives of New York City,” she writes on her personal website. “I’m grateful for the experiences and friendships I’ve made on the show. I’ve certainly learned a lot about myself and others. The show has decided to take a different direction and unfortunately I will not be a part of Season Five.”

Zarin works with her family business, Zarin Fabrics, has a line of shapewear and leggings called Skweez Couture, and she’s developing a home collection.

Sources close to the production told THR that remaining cast members Sonja Morgan, LuAnn DeLesseps, and Ramona Singer received offers to return for next season last week while the other women did not. Additionally, we're told there are three new housewives who are waiting in the wings to possibly fill the open spots on the cast.
